The NSW Quality Teaching Awards
The NSW Quality Teaching Awards recognise outstanding teachers from educational institutions across NSW.
The awards are open to permanent, part-time and casual teachers from government and non-government settings:
- preschools;
- early childhood centres;
- primary schools;
- secondary schools;
- universities; and
- TAFEs.
Past candidates have stated that the process provides 'one of the best professional development experiences' of their career.
The awards are conducted by the Australian College of Educators, a national professional association, and presented by the NSW Minister for Education and Training, Carmel Tebbutt MP.
What is required?
The awards identify teaching excellence through a selection process. Applicants are assessed in three stages, using the NSW Quality Teaching Awards criteria. The criteria align with the NSW Professional Teaching Standards.
The prizes
